Please take a look at the 1-year chart of PHM (Pulte Group, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of PHM (Pulte Group, Inc.) PHM has been holding a very important level of support at $18 (blue) since the end of February. No matter what the overall stock market has done over that period of time, the stock has held that level of $18, which was also a key resistance back in October and November. The stock approaching $18 again should provide another bounce higher, but if the overall market continues to sell-off, PHM could finally break that support.
The Tale of the Tape: PHM has a very good level of support at $18. A trader could enter a long position at $18 with a stop placed under the level. If the stock were to break below the support, a short position would be recommended instead.
